Thanks Warren. Unfortunately my scope of control ends at my application boundary. This application is video distribution of live camera feeds (surveillance system) and frequently our clients do not want us mucking around with their system settings. Clearly I *could* do what has been suggested from within my application (the top layer is C#/.NET, so the System.Web assembly has everything needed), but it would be so much nicer to just tell Live555 which NIC to use - either by IP or MAC address - instead of allowing Live555 to infer the NIC based on routing settings. But if that is my only option, then that is what I must do...

By default, the server uses the network interface that?s used for IP multicast routing - i.e., the one that has a route for 224.0.0.0/4. (The reason for this is that it uses IP multicast to detect its own IP address.) So, the easiest way to choose a particular network interface is to reconfigure your host so that it uses that network interface for IP multicast routing. You should be able to do this by running (as root): route add 224.0.0.0/4 ip-address-for-that-nic Ross Finlayson Live Networks, Inc. http://www.live555.com/ ------------------------------ Subject: Digest Footer _______________________________________________ live-devel mailing list live-devel@lists.live555.com http://lists.live555.com/mailman/listinfo/live-devel ------------------------------ End of live-devel Digest, Vol 157, Issue 1 ****************************************** ------------------------------ Message: 2 Date: Mon, 5 Dec 2016 12:00:15 -0700 From: Warren Young <war...@etr-usa.com> To: LIVE555 Streaming Media - development & use <live-de...@ns.live555.com> Subject: Re: [Live-devel] live-devel Digest, Vol 157, Issue 1 Message-ID: <5ecbc5fd-06ef-4da8-a775-b59c9031d...@etr-usa.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8 On Dec 5, 2016, at 7:27 AM, Weber, Patrick <patrick.we...@iecinfrared.com> wrote: > > Thanks for the response.

My application may use multicast for other purposes (Web > service discovery, for example), and I need to have it active on each NIC. These services must use different addresses, which gives you the opportunity to route them separately. I suggest that you use the default rule Ross recommended for the ?best? interface for multicast, then add additional routes with lower metrics (see the netstat/route(8) manual page) for the exceptions. For example, let?s say you have IPTV going out on 239.255.{0-3}.x and you wanted it to go out the 1.2.3.4 interface. Let?s further say you have the 224/4 route on the 2.3.4.5 interface with metric 10. You could then say: route add 239.255.0.0/22 1.2.3.4 metric 9 That causes the network stack?s routing layer to prefer sending IPTV multicast packets out the 1.2.3.4 NIC while everything else goes out 2.3.4.5. ------------------------------ Subject: Digest Footer _______________________________________________ live-devel mailing list live-devel@lists.live555.com http://lists.live555.com/mailman/listinfo/live-devel ------------------------------ End of live-devel Digest, Vol 157, Issue 2 ****************************************** _______________________________________________ live-devel mailing list live-devel@lists.live555.com http://lists.live555.com/mailman/listinfo/live-devel
